The BNF for Children (BNFC) 2016-2017 provides essential practical information to all healthcare professionals involved in the prescribing, dispensing, monitoring and administration of medicines to children.

Recommendations have been constructed on the basis of authoritative sources, emerging evidence and best practice guidelines. The content has been carefully validated by a network of paediatric experts and the process is overseen by a paediatric formulary committee.

The BNF for Children 2016-2017 has been revised and revalidated to reflect changes in product availability, emerging safety concerns and shifts in clinical practice.

Significant content updates include:

New safety information about the risk of abnormal pregnancy outcomes with sodium valproate and valproic acid
Updated guidance for conditions including asthma and obesity
Updated pregnancy-prevention advice for patients taking mycophenolate mofetil
New drug monographs including cholic acid
New indications for adalimumab including chronic plaque psoriasis
New safety information about the risk of osteonecrosis of the external auditory canal with bisphosphonates
Guidance on suspected or confirmed drug allergies
Evidence grading of BNF recommendations.

Unique benefits

Shares the structure of the British National Formulary (BNF) and is designed to be used in paediatric and general practice settings
Includes information on unlicensed use of medicines and provides details of unlicensed medicines that can be imported, manufactured by ‘special order' or prepared extemporaneously
Covers the drug treatment of rare childhood conditions, provides guidance on specialist paediatric interventions and includes details of those medicines that are used in children in a different way to adults

International relevance

BNF and BNFC are the gold standard of drug information in English-speaking countries. They are used for constructing national formularies in other countries and to support regulatory work. They provide essential information when treating patients who have been prescribed medicines in the UK. Unlike many other local alternatives, both resources are completely independent from pharmaceutical industry influence with guidance that is based on best practice and real life evidence.

Published jointly by the British Medical Association, Royal Pharmaceutical Society, the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, and the Neonatal and Paediatric Pharmacists Group.
